The Digital Emily Project: Achieving a Photorealistic Digital Actor
Oleg Alexander,Mike Rogers,William Lambeth,Jen-Yuan Chiang,Wan-Chun Ma,Chuan-Chang Wang,Paul Debevec +6 more
TL;DR: The Digital Emily project animated a digital face using new results in 3D facial capture, character modeling, animation, and rendering to cross the "uncanny valley" that divides a synthetic-looking face from a real, animated, expressive person.

Statistical models of shape for the analysis of protein spots in two-dimensional electrophoresis gel images
TL;DR: This work describes a parametric representation of spot shape that is both general enough to represent unusual spots, and specific enough to introduce constraints on the interpretation of complex images in image analysis of two‐dimensional electrophoresis gels.
